Betsey's Favors

My niece Betsey just got married and I had the pleasure of making her favors. Once I saw her pretty invitation I decided to use it as inspiration for the favors. My hope was to stylistically create a minimal but elegant favor and to that end I created two different styles, one made with a box lined with velum and wrapped with the copied image from the stationary. The other style I made by sewing the velum and card stock together. I actually liked them both but decided to go with the box. I made 150 of them and then sent them on their way to Betsey. I was so pleased that she liked the little packages. Since I was not able to attend the wedding the making of the favors was a way for me to be with her in love as well as spirit.
